Yes, I was actually hoping to make it rollover to the next page to get a fresh, clear starting point which you have just done :) GRMA!

May Cabu, cartoonist for Charlie Hebdo and Le Canard enchaîné and the other victims of today's attack rest in peace :(

This...is an incredible log. I particularly appreciate the break down of the jeux de mots in
the headlines. Having only browsed a few pages, I wanted to ask two questions. 1. What app are you using to track your time so meticulously? 2. Do you have any advice for getting the most out of your immersion experiences in France? I arrived here in August and advanced an incredible amount (subjectively anyways!)in my first three or so months here but feel like I have since sort of plateaud with my skills scattered around a B2. I will be here another ten weeks and am hoping to push myself a little more, starting with getting a French keyboard and focusing on writing, the thing I also really struggle with. Anyways, I will take a deeper look when I have time as these answers may provide themselves. My French hosts described the attack in Paris as tantamount to destroying a cathedral. They are pretty shocked and worried about how the event will be used politically. 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

Hey sctroyenne, welcome to Team Français! I'm sure this will be a good year for us, and I look forward to following your log.
In other news, I noticed I passed you on the Super Challenge table last week. Catch me if you can! 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

Hi sctroyenne,
A big welcome from me too to Team français ! I have noticed you floating about here and there on HTLAL and when the latest SC begun I remember reading a fair portion of your log. I just couldn't remember your user name of late... now I know who you are! Good luck this year! I look fwd to hearing about your advances in French. PM Une tranche de fromage s'il vous plaît, et un hamburger pour emporter... 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

Merci ! 1. I've been using ATracker for iOS - I'm pretty happy with what it does and it makes nice little charts and graphs for me and gives me the raw data if I want to play with it more. 2. So nice to be in country! You're in a host family? If so you're probably getting a decent amount of speaking practice but see if you can get more (try onvasortir.com for meetups and events, you can try dating, etc). Take advantage of some stuff you won't get out of the country such as plays, television tapings (myclap.tv), the whole range of French TV, guided tours of sites/walking tours in French. If there are any little community classes (cooking classes, acting, etc) that are primarily for French people and not foreign students/tourists those are great too. Otherwise, just enjoy your surroundings and try to meet a diversity of people which will give you a diversity of French knowledge and will make your experience that much richer. And start compiling books, magazines, papers, DVDs, and other materials that would be hard/expensive to get to send home. Go hunting in the used stores and the markets for great deals. If you get too much, flat-rate boxes from La Poste aren't that bad cost-wise. 4 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

Merci chefs ! Yup, I've been like the hare taking a nap. Though I'll have a decent- length book to log shortly :) Un kebab sauce samouraï pour moi, s'il vous plaît. 1 person has voted this message useful |
